Danny, I have a orig.63-64 washer bag for a A/C car home, I'll look tomorrow and give you the size. The bag from LIC doesn't look correct to me at all. I'll let you know ASAP.

Re: washer bag for a/c

I just had a look in the assembly manual for the 1964 Corvette with AC and the washer bag from ebay is not correct.
It looks according to the manual that the one in the middle with one raised "end" is the right one.
The drawing clearly shows that filler on the bag is between the 2 "holes" which you attach the bag to the bracket

I bought a set from Ecklers but the bracket for the bag is just galvanized.
I thought it was supposed to be black?
Which color is right for the bracket that holds the bag?

The one i bought is like the one on the picture under here

I noticed the same when I look at the AIM and bought a repo like you too, but then I notice my original bracket was not as wide, at first I thought maybe bubba bent it and was going to buy a new bracket/rivets, then I saw this "original" bag in ebay, which should match perfectly to my original bracket.

Here's the washer bags off my '65s. Left of each pic is from VIN 014xx; to the right in each pic is what I found under the battery, lying on the outer splash shield of my 396, late VIN.

Notice the small "D" to the left of the 'C'; also fabric texture (canvas-like) on the backside.

Mike,

Please provide the pic of your original 63/64 bag.

Thanks

Re: washer bag for a/c

Danny, The pictures that Wayne posted are just like mine, I believe the bag was changed for 1967.

Re: washer bag for a/c

Which color is the bracket for the washer bag? I suppose it is not galvanized as the one that i bought at Ecklers?

Thanks for the pics guys. Looks like the one in the fleaBay was not the "original" afterall. My bracket was painted black, can't tell if it was flat or semi.

Also my battary access door was covered w/ undercoating on the wheel well side, how about yours? The JG says no undercoating in that area.

Danny -- maybe another thread should be started on this subject. There was a thread on undercoating of these access panels a couple of years ago. My late 396 has gobs of undercoat (see pics), with visible sags.

Reading the '65 TIM&JG, pertaining to C60 and L78's; "it is unlikely the uppermost portion of the battery access panel and related hardware is undercoated. The entire battery access panel is blacked out."
